Their datasheet only says 12mm for burners https://www.jameshardie.co.uk/fermacellapi/downloads/file/en-GB/06920000002ikMvAAI

I think the idea with the cement backer board is to dot and dab, so less effort to bring it level, especially if the substrate is not. It's only 12mm and liberal backend dabs will fill the missing mortar and such. However your plan seems sound, just a lot more effort, especially if your gaps...

I have a gransfors bruks maul https://www.gransforsbruk.com/en/product/gransfors-splitting-maul/ Was a birthday gift. Brilliant.

Downstairs alone is 70 or 80m of skirting... Hey ho, room at a time

I followed this for the cement board lining https://www.stovefitterswarehouse.co.uk/pages/lining-a-fireplace Fitter is happy for me to do those bits and will install stove later in year. If you want to tile, you tile over the cement board. Links to products in that post.

OK, I do admit that when I now drive the ICEs, I do enjoy high revs, the occasional wheel spin and throwing it round corners in a way you cannot in an EV.

I've a Tesla. 300 odd mile range. Chargers at work. Charger at home. Electricity cost is 1/3 compared to diesel, per mile. Don't need to travel for work, predictable mileage (maybe 30miles a day) Absolute win. Also the acceleration of an EV is awesome. Still have a petrol and diesel cars. EV is...

When I moved to current house (sounds just like yours, not been touched for a long time), the phone point also terminated in a brown junction box and crackled / was too poor for broadband. On the advice from here, I called my provider and told them there was no "NTE", a network termination...

Don't forget to take it off first though

But we all get a giggle looking at your cockups

Any chance you did it when removing that skirting board? Looks like the angle bead has been knocked/tugged/disturbed and cracked the plaster over the wings. I'd dig the loose stuff out the crack and fill.

Get another installer!

Cheers @JohnD I thought as much. Have been busy - new radiators and replaced / insulated all central heating pipes. Added spurs so there's a sane number of sockets in each room. Cat 6 laid. Alarm cabled moved New water main in. Air bricks cleaned. Just the pesky gaps to sort

Prepping for a new parquet floor being laid over the suspended wooden ground floor. Now the skirts are off, I have a chance to block the gap between the floorboards and wall before the ply is laid. I was originally considering something like compriband (until I saw the cost per m and the...

Does he mean a metal edge skim bead If so, won't be visible when plastered.

It wasn't planning rather BR exemption on a porch. 30m3 or less Doh

That was it! Apropos of nothing - planning portal now say 30sqm for a porch. Wasn't it 3? When did this change
